A week after polls closed, Americans still don't know who won major races: gubernatorial races in Florida and Georgia, a Florida Senate race and many House contests. Candidates who conceded on election night are backtracking and demanding that "every vote be counted," as...

As of Thursday, more than a week after election day, about 2.7 million ballots cast by California voters remained uncounted. In all but two of the 58 California counties — lightly populated Sierra and Inyo — vote-counting is ongoing and may continue until the Dec. 7 deadline. Why is it taking so long? Surely something must have gone terribly wrong if there are still a number of...

Voters are largely free to ignore the wave of television and direct mail ads aimed in their direction every election cycle. But what if the person trying to influence your vote is your boss? Business groups are increasingly using the workplace as a staging ground to shape the outcomes of elections. Last month, supervisors at the Phoenix corporate headquarters of the truck...

A new app wants to help get out the word to vote in the upcoming midterm elections — but there's one feature that could feel a little invasive. The app, called Vote With Me, provides helpful information about the elections taking place in your district, lets you know whether a race is tight, and shows you how to prepare for Election Day. But the app also pulls your voter...

The Wire - Carcetti's Typical Politician (Tough on Crime) Speech

The substance of this speech is lost on a lot of viewers. There\'s a very nuanced message that the creators of \"The Wire\" wanted to get across, and unfortunately, a lot of people missed it.
Ed Burns (co-creator of \"The Wire\") gave his thoughts of the speech, in an interview on NPR:
Ed Burns: I remember at the end of the third season, when he was still a councilman, we had Carcetti give an impassioned speech, and the camera gently panned in on him as he rhapsodized about saving neighborhoods and demanding better for the city. And it really was a beautiful speech. And you know, the writers worked on it for a long while. And yet, everything about the speech was just a recall and a retread of the drug war.
And he was arguing for more warfare. And whereas, the whole of the third season had shown this police commander trying to struggle with it on pragmatic and practical terms, in terms of Bunny Colvin. And I was amazed to find that a lot of viewers, you know, longtime viewers, had watched that episode and they followed Carcetti right off the cliff. They were, despite what they had been shown for 12 episodes in terms of the box that the drug war is, they thought he was the solution, because he sounded like the solution.
And that taught me a lot, you know, I kind of went all \"Candide\" on myself. I forgot what I was writing because I was shocked that so many people went with Carcetti.
